"He has become a head chef, with an annual salary that’s not low by national standards, why would he suddenly do something like this?" Chen Wei wasn’t concerned about it, merely looking for a topic of conversation to avoid the awkward silence.
"Uncle Shi had indeed been working at our hotel for a very long time, but as people age, it’s inevitable for their physical functions to decline. He tried to hide it, but complaints from the guests about him have been increasing."
Liu Yuchan playfully stuck out her tongue and pointed, "Uncle Shi’s sense of taste has failed him, the dishes he made were either too salty or completely tasteless. We did consider getting him treatment, but he wouldn’t accept the reality that he had lost his sense of taste, let alone undergo treatment. We had planned to dismiss him tomorrow, but we didn’t expect this to happen."
As she spoke, Liu Yuchan suddenly stepped sideways, moving close to Chen Wei, wrapped her arms around his arm, raised her head, and with a sweet smile said, "However, we are truly grateful to have Brother Wei here. Thanks to you, our hotel’s reputation was saved, and no innocent person suffered further harm."
"A medical practitioner should save people from fire and water," Chen Wei replied.
"Yes! I know Brother Wei is a good doctor, I’m very aware of that," Liu Yuchan took out her ID card, authenticated herself, opened the elevator, and pressed the button for the top floor.
"Um, Sister Yuchan, isn’t this a bit too close?" This was, after all, only the second time Chen Wei and Liu Yuchan had met, so he thought it was better to keep some distance.
Her having a favorable impression of him didn’t mean her family felt the same about him.
"Since you called me ’sister,’ and I called you ’brother,’ it’s quite normal to be a bit closer, right?" Liu Yuchan showed no signs of letting go; instead, she held him even tighter.
"This..." Liu Yuchan was more articulate than Chen Wei had imagined.
He had no way of dealing with her and could only let her hold onto him tightly as she was doing.
But they had agreed to let go once they arrived at their destination.
As it turned out, Liu Yuchan was true to her word. Upon reaching the office door, she let go of his arm, knocked on the door, then pressed down the doorknob, opened the door, and stood against the wall, "Brother Wei, please come in."
"Okay." Chen Wei nodded and entered the office.
The elderly gentleman whose life Chen Wei had saved with his medical skills, who was Liu Yuchan’s grandfather, Liu Fangming, was currently standing by the window.
He seemed to be paying attention to the situation on the first floor, where ambulances and police cars had already arrived.
"Grandfather, I have brought Brother Wei here."
"Brother Wei?" Liu Fangming was puzzled, but when he turned around and clearly saw Chen Wei’s face, a look of surprise crossed his features, and he hurried over, "It’s you! My savior!"
"Elder Liu, you can call me Chen Wei, or just Chen," Chen Wei realized that the members of the Liu family were even more excited than one another.
The upside was they didn’t put on airs, which made them easy to get along with.
"Alright, Chen, we really owe you one this time. Otherwise, I really wouldn’t know what to do..."
Just as Liu Fangming was speaking, he heard Liu Yuchan’s slightly reproachful voice, "Grandfather, it’s not proper to let an honored guest stand while you speak, is it?"
"Yuchan’s correction is right, indeed it’s right," Liu Fangming didn’t get angry but followed Liu Yuchan’s suggestion and led Chen Wei to the sofa for visitors, "Come, Mr. Chen, please take a seat."
Then he spoke to Liu Yuchan, "Yuchan, haven’t you always said you wanted to personally make tea for Mr. Chen? Why not brew a cup for Chen now, so he can taste your skill."
"Yes! Grandfather." Caught up in the excitement, Liu Yuchan had almost forgotten about this.
"Come, Mr. Chen, let’s sit."
"Okay."
The two weren’t far from each other, roughly the distance of a person’s height.
"By the way, I haven’t asked why Chen is at our hotel yet. Is it a coincidence?"
Chen Wei could tell that Liu Fangming had asked casually, without intent to probe into his affairs, so he replied, "I heard that this hot spring is famous in River City, so I came specifically to soak in the hot spring and relax my body."
"I see. Then, what do you think of our hot spring?"
...
Afterwards, they couldn’t avoid some polite conversation, which of course wasn’t entirely hollow, as it did hold some truth—for instance, the fact that the hot spring was indeed a pleasant experience.
"Here you go, Wei brother," she said.
"Okay, thank you."
Chen Wei took the teacup from Liu Yuchan, took a sip, and seeing her face full of expectation, knew he had to say something or he might disappoint her. He followed with, "This tea is brewed well."
Liu Yuchan giggled, her hand at the back of her head, obviously very pleased and unable to hide it.
"Speaking of which, Chen, you’ve helped our Liu family greatly twice, and I haven’t properly thanked you yet. Tell me, what do you want? As long as I, our Liu family, can provide it, we certainly won’t hesitate," Liu Fangming promised.
"Elder Liu, I’m a man without desires or demands, there’s really nothing I want. Both times were simply my duty as a doctor. You need not worry about it," Chen Wei, as the Heavenly God of Protecting the Country of Great Xia, could get anything he wanted with just a word. He genuinely couldn’t think of anything Liu Fangming could offer him.
"May I ask how old you are now, Chen?" Liu Fangming suddenly changed the topic.
Taken utterly by surprise, Chen Wei didn’t have time to think and answered, "Just over twenty."
"Just over twenty, that’s perfect. My granddaughter has reached the age to consider marriage. Chen, if you don’t mind, perhaps..."
"This! How could this possibly be?" Chen Wei hurriedly interrupted Liu Fangming before he could finish, immediately grasping his meaning, "Elder sir, this isn’t the era of parental matchmaking and arranged marriages. Matters like marriage depend on the wishes of both parties. Yuchan is still so young, how could she want to marry someone like me?"
"Right, Yuchan? I assume you wouldn’t want to marry a man you’ve only met for a few days, would you?" Chen Wei turned and asked.
"It’s not that I don’t know you! If it’s Wei brother, I am willing!"
Liu Yuchan’s decisiveness caught Chen Wei just as off guard.
From this, it was clear the two were definitely related as grandfather and granddaughter.
With no other option, he said, "Elder sir, to be truthful, although I am not old, I’ve already had one failed marriage and currently have no plans of considering marriage again."
"Is that so..." Liu Fangming, hearing this, didn’t pressure Chen Wei further. It wasn’t reluctance due to his past divorce but a desire to give him enough time to reflect.
Before saying more, his face suddenly changed, turning a shade paler.
Hastily, without a moment’s delay, he took out a handkerchief from his inner pocket, covered his mouth, "Cough cough cough!"
"Grandpa!" Seeing this, Liu Yuchan couldn’t stay seated. She got up, reached for the medicine bottle on the desk, and brought it over to him, "Grandpa, your medicine."
"No need, I just took some," Liu Fangming weakly waved off.
"You just took your medicine, why are you still coughing up blood?" Liu Yuchan was very panicked.
"It seems that Elder Liu’s sickness has worsened more than I imagined!"
